    Good stuff.

    I seen you in Prizefighter and I will be honest, I thought your confidence and punch resistance was gone and you were a shot fighter, going into the tournament. I felt you were a KO waiting to happen.

    However, you impressed everyone with superb displays of boxing and punching in equal measures and the revenge win over Choi proved everyone wrong. I don't know how you turned the clock back but you did so admirably.

    All the best in the future. You genuinely made a fan in me last time out.

    Hey derry hate to be cheeky but doing some work for uni on journeymen- could you give me your thoughts on how journeymen helped you early in your career? Would be much appreciated mate!
     
  7. I agree, you looked like a different fighter in Prizefighter.

    Good luck to you :good

    without journey men mate there wouldn be boxing , i hate calling them journey men cos i never like to disrespect any fighter ,i have boxed a few in my time i remember boxing buckley and i learnt alot in the fight mate , they made me get the rounds under my belt cos wen i first started of and had about 12 fights i had a good ko ratio so needed fighting fighters who can survive , all tough guys and are a credit to the sport mate

    Best of luck to you and hopefully the next part of your career can match the first part for action, excitement and honours.

    Congratulations on your prizefighter performance Derry. Not trying to be disrespectful, but like GPater I thought you were on your way out as a fighter but you proved me and a lot of other people wrong. Hopefully you can get some more big fights!
